... By means of deep optical images obtained at the Special Astrophysical Observatory 6-m telescope it was discovered that some Seyfert galaxies that were earlier considered to be non-interacting objects displayed signatures of elongated tidal envelopes belonging to satellite debris. ... Our results suggest that statistic studies based on popular imaging surveys (for example SDSS) can lead to an underestimation of the fraction of minor mergers among galaxies with active nuclei (AGN). ...

... ATCA HI and radio continuum observations of the peculiar southern galaxy IC2554 and its surroundings reveal typical signatures of an interacting galaxy group. We detected a large HI cloud between IC2554 and the elliptical galaxy NGC3136B. The gas dynamics in IC2554 itself, which is sometimes described as a colliding pair, are surprisingly regular, whereas NGC3136B was not detected. ... The total HI mass of the IC2554 system is approx. 2 x 10 9 Msun, a third of which resides in the HI cloud. ...

Examples of pipeline processing . ... This page presents examples of "on the fly" processing of FITS astronomical data available on the WEB using the HyperLeda pipeline tools. ... In many cases, raw data are archived and a consisten description of the file (FITS header) allows to process them on the fly. ... This first command makes a "pre-view" display of the image. o=fa:L93111HP1/00147&z=vg . ... The result of a pipeline processing is a FITS file that you can read as a normal disk file. ...

... STScI-PRC01-07 NGC 4013: A GALAXY ON THE EDGE NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has snapped this remarkable view of a perfectly "edge-on" galaxy, NGC 4013. This new Hubble picture reveals with exquisite detail huge clouds of dust and gas extending along, as well as far above, the galaxy's main disk. ... Dark clouds of interstellar dust stand out in the picture because they absorb the light of background stars. ... Dark interstellar clouds are believed to be where new stars are formed. ...

Since the first stars and then galaxies formed the Universe has been an immense factory converting neutral gas into stellar material. ... In this seminar I will discuss recent results from the Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey, probing the assembly of stellar mass though both in-situ star formation (as traced by multiple SFR indicators) and interactions (both mergers and interaction induced star-formation) - in galaxies spanning ~4 decades in stellar mass. ...
